Gold star ⭐ for anyone who: set the boundary, resisted the urge to over-explain it, felt guilty anyway, and still didn’t take it back.

Tiny choices. Big emotional growth.

Kinda chic to realize healing isn’t about becoming a completely different person.

It’s learning how to notice your patterns, regulate your nervous system, set boundaries, and stop taking responsibility for everyone else’s feelings.

It’s crying in therapy.
It’s saying no without writing a three-paragraph apology.
It’s choosing yourself without immediately feeling like the villain.

Self-awareness? Chic.
Emotional regulation? Chic.
No longer people-pleasing your way into resentment? Extremely chic.

Therapy is in. Abandoning yourself to keep the peace is out.

Reasons to follow me: therapy thoughts, millennial nostalgia, quilting side quests, emotional support beverages, and the occasional reminder that healing does not make you immune to avoiding a text for three business days.

Reasons to unfollow me: you are looking for perfect advice, a flawless posting schedule, or someone who does not still think 2006 was roughly ten years ago.

Basically, I am here to make you feel seen, gently call you out, and remind you to bring a sweater just in case.

“Two things can be true at once” is a statement I say frequently in sessions.

You are allowed to hold two truths at the same time.
You can love someone and feel angry with them.
You can feel relieved and heartbroken.
You can understand someone’s intentions and still name the impact.
You can have compassion for their story without abandoning your own.

Sometimes we use all-or-nothing thinking because certainty feels safer.

If one person is completely wrong and the other is completely right, the situation can feel easier to understand.

But relationships, grief, boundaries and healing are rarely that simple.
Making room for the “and” can help you validate your experience without turning someone into a villain, or turning yourself into the problem.

What are two truths you are learning to hold at the same time?

This is about creating a space where people feel seen, heard, understood, and reminded that they don’t have to navigate life alone.

It’s about every person who has ever walked into my office carrying something heavy and choosing to let me sit with them in it.

It’s about the quiet moments that no one else sees - the tears that finally come after years of holding them back, the laughter that returns after a long season of surviving, the hard conversations, the healing, the boundaries, the courage it takes to keep showing up.

This recognition isn’t just mine. It belongs to every client who has trusted me with their story and allowed me to witness their resilience. It belongs to the people who have shared my work, recommended my practice, cheered me on, and believed in what I’m building.

Five years ago, I never could have imagined that this would be my life. I simply hoped I could create a space where people felt safe enough to be fully themselves, a place where they felt seen, heard, understood, and reminded that they never had to earn compassion.

Being voted Bronze for Best of Kamloops is an incredible honour, but what means the most is knowing that this community values the importance of mental health and the work we do together.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your trust, your support, and for allowing me to do work that I genuinely love every single day. It is a privilege that I will never take for granted. 🖤

Some friendship red flags aren’t loud. They are the quiet anxiety before you reply, the guilt after setting a boundary, or the way you start shrinking yourself to keep the peace.

A healthy friendship doesn’t mean zero conflict. It means there is emotional safety, mutual effort, accountability, and room for honest communication.

Sometimes friendship healing means noticing where you’ve been over-functioning, people-pleasing, ignoring your needs, or calling emotional exhaustion “loyalty.”

You’re allowed to outgrow friendships that require you to abandon yourself to belong.

Save this for your next friendship clarity check.

I’m so grateful to share that I’ve moved into the voting round for Best of Kamloops in the Clinical Counsellor and Therapist categories.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate me. It truly means more than I can fully put into words. This work is deeply personal to me. Being a counsellor is not just about sitting across from people in hard moments, it’s about creating a space where people feel safe, seen, supported, and reminded that they don’t have to navigate life alone.

To be recognized by this community, by clients, colleagues, friends, and people who have connected with my work, feels incredibly meaningful. Kamloops has been such an important part of my journey, and I feel so grateful to continue growing my practice here.

Thank you for your continued support, encouragement, referrals, kind words, and for being part of this little corner of the mental health world with me.

You can vote at Best of Kamloops until June 9th 🤍
